Since I wanted that banner piece to be larger than the rest, I stretched my die to extend the banner piece. My star was die cut into the banner and then filled with red and white seed beads.

The red and white banner pieces were cut using the same banner set, making them the sizes smaller and then arranged onto my card mat.

The whole card mat, made from a piece of white cardstock and layered with a piece of designer cardstock die cut using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies & More set was then popped up onto my A2 card base.

The sentiment, from My Little Firecrackerwas stamped onto the front of my card and some hemp cord was added with a bow for the finishing touch.

What do you think of my card? I hope I gave you another idea on how to use those awesome MCT dies!!!

Since the 4th of July is just around the corner, I made a cute celebration card using the newly released set~ Scalloped Stitched Circle

For my card I used designer paper from Doodlebug Designs~Patriotic Parade and even pulled out my prismacolor pencils!To make this card I started with an A2 size card base, added a layer of white cardstock and then die cut the designer paper using the Stitched Rectangular Frame Die.Next I die cut the circle and then the matching scalloped circle using the new set~ Scalloped Stitched Circles. The circle die cut was through the designer paper, the scalloped circle was with some matching navy cardstock from my stash.The sentiment, from the set~ My Little Firecrackerwas stamped inside the circle and then the matching firecracker was stamped and colored using my prismacolor pencils.Some added star die cuts from the 3 Star Stitched Dies were added for some extra details.So there is my completed card....what do you think???

Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!

I am pretty excited about my project...take a look at what I made using these sets....

OMG how adorable are these hair clips?!?!?

I used the new pinwheel dies, both small and large to make 2 different size/sets of clips.

These were so super easy to make, I took it a step further and used my embroidery machine to make the clip covers, but you could also just cover the clips with some ribbon instead.

I used the dies to diescut the pinwheels and centers using felt. After putting the pinwheels together, adding a sparkle brad or pearl brad to the centers, I used my hot glue gun to attach then to the clips.

Easy peesy and ready to be worn!!

Now for the entire release.....

Boy is this week flying by!!! But I sure hope you are enjoying all these awesome sneaks from the DT!

Today we are showcasing this releases FREEBIE die~ Pinwheel Centers along with the new Small & Medium Stitched Pinwheel Dies

and here is the project I made using these sets...

How super fun are these new dies!!!! For my project I made some 4th of July wands/party favors. The designer paper I used for both pinwheels is from DoodleBug Designs~ Patriotic Parade. I have a close-up of both so you can see...

This pinwheel is the smaller one...so super CUTE! See that center star..that is the FREEBIE (well one of the dies in the freebie set). To make this one, I die cut the pinwheel 2 times, putting it together with the sparkle brad and star center. Before attaching it to my polka dot straw, I attached some long white and blue ribbon. The whole piece (pinwheel, brad and ribbon) was then placed through a small hole on the straw to hold it all together.For the sentiment, I use the Smallest of the Ribbon End Banner and stamped the sentiment from the Teeny Tag Holidays set.

Here is the larger of the 2 pinwheels. You can see the difference in the way the brad looks through the larger star center. I assembled this one the same as the smaller one, used the Ribbon End Banners for the sentiment and stamped the sentiment from the set~ My Little Firecracker.I can not get over how easy these are to put together and how fun they are!!!!!I can not wait to make more projects with these!!"FREEBIE DIE"

Miss Emma, of course is releasing another FABULOUS set of all dies and I know you are all going to LOVE everything in this release!!!

So lets get started!!

Today we are showcasing the new die set~

Scalloped Stitched Circlesand here is the card I made using this set.....

When I started to design my card, I pulled the Doodlebug Designs paper pad~Flea Market

and saw the sunflower sheet. I used that inspiration to design my card, of course using that paper pack for all the designer paper.

I used 2 different size circle dies and the matching scallop dies to make my sunflowers. The leaves were added using the Stitched Pretty Flower & Leaves Dies and A Thankful Heart set.

Moving onto the sentiment, I used the Ribbon End Banners Die and stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Day set.

So foam to pop up the dies and sentiment and a little white gel pen completes my card.

Unofficial holiday but is celebrated in many countriesHere is the card I made for this fun and weird holiday........
